| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
16-Dehydroprogesterone is used in the direct organocatalytic stereoselective transfer hydrogenation of conjugated olefins of steroids. 16-Dehydroprogesterone is a form of Progesterone (P755900), a steroid hormone produced by the corpus luteum that induces maturation and secretory activity of the uterine endothelium; suppresses ovulation. Progesterone is implicated in the etiology of breast cancer. | [Definition]
ChEBI: 16,17-didehydroprogesterone is a 20-oxo steroid, a 3-oxo-Delta(4) steroid and an enone. It is functionally related to a progesterone. | [IC 50]
